1. Pour the right amount of ground coffee powder into the pot and screw on the supercharger to flatten and tighten the coffee a little.

Colombia, located in the northwest of South America, is a beautiful country with a long history. Indians have lived on this land since ancient times. It was colonized by Spain in 1531 and gained independence in 1819. It was renamed in 1886 to commemorate Columbus, the discoverer of the American continent. In 1808, a priest introduced coffee to Colombia for the first time from the French Antilles via Venezuela.

Colombia has four treasures: flowers, gold, emeralds and coffee. You can see the importance of coffee Colombia. And there may be very few coffee in the world named after a country, such as Nestle Coffee and Blue Mountain Coffee are not named after a country. Colombia is the first country to use the name of the country as a brand of coffee. Colombian coffee is famous for its quality, taste and high taste. Colombia's coffee production occupies a very important part of the country's economic life, with annual exports of about 1.5 billion US dollars, accounting for a large proportion of its foreign trade.

Just as only wine produced in the champagne region of France can be called champagne, only coffee produced in Colombia and picked by hand can be called "Colombian coffee". Colombian coffee is one of the few original coffee sold in the world under the name of the country. In terms of quality, it has won praise unmatched by other coffee.

Today, Colombia is the world's third largest coffee producer and exporter, the world's largest exporter of Arabica coffee beans and the world's largest exporter of washed coffee beans.

The unique geographical environment creates Colombian coffee.

Colombia has beautiful mountains and rivers, beautiful scenery, pleasant climate, spring all year round, fresh air and refreshing air. Colombia's mild climate, humid air, and diverse climate make it a harvest season all year round, with different kinds of coffee ripening at different times. What they grow is Arabica coffee beans of unique quality, and the coffee made from this coffee bean has a rich taste and endless aftertaste, which can be called fine coffee. Nowadays, many people equate "Colombian coffee" with "high quality" and "good taste".

The world coffee is divided into two series, one is the "hard" coffee represented by Brazil, which has a strong flavor, and the other is the "soft" coffee represented by Colombia, which has a light flavor. The difference lies in the altitude of the producing area and the method of planting. Coffee is planted extensively in hilly red soil in Brazil and intensive cultivation in mountain black soil in Colombia.

Colombian coffee is divided into more than 200 grades, which means that the coffee is very regional. The country's coffee-producing areas are located in the Andes, where the climate is mild and the air is humid. Colombia has three Codiera mountains running north and south, right into the Andes. Coffee is grown along the highlands of these mountains. The mountain steps provide a diverse climate, where the whole year is the harvest season, and different kinds of coffee ripen at different times. And fortunately, unlike Brazil, Colombia doesn't have to worry about frost. There are about 700 million coffee trees in Colombia, 66% of which are planted in modern plantations and the rest on small traditionally run farms.

The pure taste of Colombian coffee, in addition to the natural environment with the most favorable conditions for coffee growth, is inseparable from the hard work of local growers. In Colombia, coffee cultivation has reached 1.07 million hectares, there are about 302000 coffee plantations in the country, and 30 to 40 per cent of the rural population depends directly on coffee production. Although there are many farms in Colombia, they are not large in area. The area of each farm is only about 2 hectares, and more than 80% of the coffee plantations have only about 5000 coffee trees, an average of 3000. Thus it can be seen that agriculture in Colombia belongs to the small-scale farm type. The locals plant tall trees or banana trees around the coffee trees. Build an Arbor for coffee trees at the seedling stage to ensure the cool and humid environment needed for coffee growth. Due to the high humidity, small temperature difference and slow ripening of coffee beans in the coffee forest, it is conducive to the accumulation of caffeine and aromatic substances, so the quality of coffee is the best.
